00:00We also have a very special guest on the airplane today, my girlfriend Stephanie.
00:03And today is her birthday.
00:05So if everyone could please say happy birthday to her, I would greatly appreciate it.
00:12I also have a little surprise planned.
00:14But to pull this off, I'm going to need everybody's help on the plane.
00:17So if you're willing to help your pilot out, please give me a cheer.
00:23That makes me very happy.
00:25This is perfect.
00:26Okay, now, your stewardess Kathy has put something in your seat pockets.
00:30Please do not say out loud what it is.
00:32You guys will know what to do when you see it.
00:35Stephanie, my love, I'm sure this is confusing for you, but it won't be for long.
00:40Just trust me here.
00:41This is something for you, but it's going to be in your seat pocket as well.
00:45Do you see something in there?
00:46Because I'm up here flying the plane, can you other passengers make some noise once you find it?
00:51So I know you've got it.
00:55That's sweet, sweet music to my ears.
00:58Okay, great, everybody.
01:00Sweetheart, open that up and read it out loud for me if you can.
01:03It's part of the surprise.
01:04Just go ahead and read that out loud, even though I know you really do not want to.
01:11Stephanie, happy birthday.
01:12I know you hate being embarrassed, but I promise this one will be good.
01:16Today, I am flying the same plane we first met on.
01:20And you are sitting in the same spot.
01:22The first time I saw you sitting in that spot when I boarded this plane for a work meeting,
01:26I remember thinking you were the most beautiful woman I'd ever met.
01:31I've never told you this before, but I think it's time you knew.
01:35I was only supposed to be on this flight for a brief layover from New York to Chicago,
01:40but I bribed them to let me stay for the full flight to Los Angeles so I could sit next
01:45to you and talk to you longer.
01:47I still think you are the most beautiful woman I've ever seen, even from up here in the captain's seat.
01:54Since that fateful flight, you've become my co-pilot, not just in the air, but in life.
01:59You stood by me during pilot training in school and have kept me steady through turbulent times.
02:06And you're always by my side cheering me on when I soar.
02:09And you always let me watch Top Gun, even though you've seen it a million times.
02:15There is no one I'd rather do life with than you.
02:18I've thought a lot about how I wanted to do this, and I couldn't imagine a better place than where
02:23we met.
02:23Doing the thing I love most.
02:25So here it goes.
02:26In a moment, I'm going to turn off the fastened seatbelt sign.
02:29When I do, I want you to turn around and read the signs.
02:33The signs?
02:34Love, your co-captain, Nick.
02:37Turn around and read the signs.
02:40Will you marry me?
02:43What?
02:45Will you marry me?
02:46Yeah!
02:46Will you marry me?
02:47Well done!
